In 1995 two 10 hour mini-series appeared on air simultaneously about the history of Rock & Roll (the other being History of Rock and Roll by Time-Warner). This one aired first on PBS and seems to stay closer to its documentary roots, and more factual information is found in this series.

Episode 4 - "Respect"

Berry Gordy Jr. started his own record label Motown. Motown grew quickly within a few years to be the major force in the pop industry as artists and songs were all selected on the basis of having crossover potential. Gordy also hired outside talents such as Maxine Powell, and Charlie Atkins to polish the appearance and style of their artists. Jerry Wexler of Atlantic records worked with STAX records to bring Aritha Franklin into the pop scene, later followed by Otis Redding.
